Check it out, should be a good turnout of bikes, especially with the new Grudge series running last few events getting the bikes back to the track. Several top alky dragsters will also be in attendance. Along with the usual Pro & Sportsman bracket races, an unlimited fastest class , and a stock frame class have been added with sizeable purses!!

And, I'm dustin off DT for 3 days. My girl hasn't seen the dirt for a couple years.

Thats the first time I've seen it from that angle...Where's the gas tank? Good luck

looks like the left side "radiator" is the tank.

Had a great weekend, ran the piss outta DT. Friday and Saturday struggled with the bike, few bogs off the line as the track was heavier than usual, had the bar too high and pogo'd a few times. Ran some mid 4.4's but nothing better than a .43. Sunday switched it up, decided to try the 10 paddle rippers I've had for 2.5 years and never ran yet. Lowered the bar allot, and was able to drop the 60' times 1/2 a tenth, which in turn dropped the et's. Got into the .30's consistently, felt good to at least be going in the right direction. MPH was down considerably, which I expected as the rippers are full carcass, not buffed. Might just have to have a set made on a sls carcass!!

Nice work Brad. Glad to hear DT is running well. Are 4.3-4.4's where you typically run at Albany?

Yes, normally run in the .33 - .38 range, so I was pretty frustrated Fri & sat.
